In answering any question about our faith, we want to first turn to the Bible and see what the scriptures say. This helps to provide us with a more comprehensive answer than we might pull from our memory or common anecdotes. Answering the question of why did Jesus come to earth from the scriptures also helps us to keep our answer from becoming overly focused on the human point of view.

The Good News of the Gospel is required because the bad news related to our judgment before God is that He requires consistent perfection from us. One rebellious sin, any breaches by us of God's moral code brings the sentence of spiritual death and eternal separation from our Creator. But scripture says the Good News of the Gospel is that God is both just and the justifier. In this podcast, we examine this topic and explain the relevant verses that provide our answer.

It is common to question whether humans need the teachings of the Bible to truly understand what is morally good versus evil. Stated differently: do we need to rely on the Judeo-Christian ethics of scripture or can we - using our rational and logical minds - objectively determine what is right and wrong without the structure of religion? In this podcast, we look at this question from the viewpoint of scripture itself as well as from an experiential and historical perspective.
